Aftercare tips

Nothing complicated is needed:

  • Protect the bath with a towel when doing jobs nearby
  • Do not scrub with anything abrasive
  • Store metal items away from the bath
  • Give the bath a quick rinse after use

There is nothing special to do after a repair. Skip bleach and gritty creams and give it a rinse after each bath.

Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. A chip the size of a fingernail can become a much larger patch if it’s left for months, so it pays to deal with it early.

Bath repair in Rushall without replacing anything

A damaged bath doesn’t have to mean a new bathroom. We fill the damage, shape it to the curve of the bath and refinish it, with the colour mixed on site so the repair is hard to spot. We regularly repair whirlpool & spa baths, acrylic and roll-top & freestanding, and common reasons people get in touch are rusty patches near the plughole and chips on the rim or sides.

Big or small, you get the same one-year guarantee.

DIY kit or professional repair?

If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully, and give it the full curing time. If it fails, we can still put it right.

You can buy a DIY kit for most repairs, and they can make a small mark look better. The trouble is colour and preparation: they come in a handful of shades, and if the surface is not prepared the repair will not last.

What we can’t put right

We won’t take on work that will not last, so here’s what a repair can’t put right:

  • Acrylic cracks with no access behind them
  • Leaking fittings, which need a plumber
  • Rust that has eaten right through a steel bath

If in doubt, send pictures and we will say what we think.

Materials we work on in Rushall

  • Pressed steel enamel
  • Acrylic
  • Roll-top & freestanding
  • Cast iron enamel
  • Whirlpool & spa baths

FAQs for Rushall

Are you a vetted contractor?

Yes. Our accreditations include CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.

How long does the repair take to cure?

Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we have done.

Do the materials smell?

There may be a mild smell during the work, which fades afterwards.

Can you do more than one item on the same visit?

Yes, and it’s frequently cheaper. Send pictures of everything together and we will quote them together.

Do you charge for travel?

No. Our quotes include travel, with the same prices everywhere we work.

Does someone need to be in?

Someone needs to let us in and show us the job. You don’t need to watch us work.

Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?

Generally, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a picture.

Can you repair a failed DIY repair?

Yes, we do this frequently. The old material comes out, any rust is treated, then we repair it properly.

How the visit works

We turn up at the time we agreed with you and looks over the damage before anything else. The floor and nearby surfaces are covered before any work starts. Most visits take a morning or an afternoon, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, the area is cleaned and any loose enamel or rust is removed.
  2. We fill the damage and sand it flush with the surrounding surface.
  3. The colour is mixed on the spot to match your bath.
  4. We build up the finish and polish it into the surrounding enamel.
  5. The repair is left to cure, and most baths can be used the day after.

Getting ready for the visit

  • Tell us about any previous repairs or coatings
  • Keep pets and children out of the room while we work
  • Let us know which floor the room is on

Glass and heavy bottles cause more chips than anything else, with dropped shower heads close behind. Taps and wastes cause problems too: water sits around them, and any chip there soon rusts.

Keep an eye out for these signs:

  • Damage beneath the taps
  • Holes from dropped items
  • A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
  • Cracks in an acrylic bath

What bath repair costs

Repairs from £95. Every quote is fixed and free. What we take into account:

  • Unusual colours or finishes
  • Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
  • The type of damage
  • Where the damage is and how we get to it

We charge the same wherever you are, with no extra for Rushall. What changes the price is the job itself: how much damage, what it’s made of and how many items.
